Old World Underground, Where Are You Now?

About Me

Just a note - I'd love to reply to every message I get, and I try as hard as I can, but there are only so many hours in the day. So if I take a while to get back to you, I'm really really sorry. Please don't take it personally!
I'm a British comic book artist/writer/creator/something more pretentious.
I worked on PHONOGRAM with writer Kieron Gillen. It's published by Image Comics , as are my previous books LONG HOT SUMMER and FOUR LETTER WORLDS.
I recently completed SUBURBAN GLAMOUR, all by myself. Next up is PHONOGRAM 2.
